Most Fried Chicken is Done in a Heavy Skillet This One is Done in the Oven

This is a very tasty boneless chicken breast recipe. The chicken is coated in egg and then dipped in a flavored breadcrumb mixture, made from red pepper, onion powder, wheat germ and more. Wheat germ is very healthy and contains twenty three different nutrients.

It is also high in protein. Wheat germ is a very small part of the wheat kernel. The coated chicken breasts are simply baked until they are done. This crispy oven fried chicken recipe is great served with mashed potatoes or mashed garlic potatoes and some boiled or steamed vegetables on the side.
